Hmm, that actually looks good. Can you please paste your /etc/fstab
here as well?

- the CD-ROM is automatically mounted ('mount' will list it)

- the icon in Disks changes and the CD-ROM's label is shown

- the same new icon will appear on the Desktop

- a Nautilus window with the CD's content will pop up

All of these are the default settings, you can adapt them in Computer
-> Desktop Settings -> Removable devices.

Yes, it just has different icons and titles.

/dev/sr0, I suppose.

If it does not mount automatically, can you please type the command 

  pmount /dev/sr0

and see what happens?

Thanks,

Martin
